How did a Honda accord v6 keep up with me?

Secondly, the Z is at home on just about any track where an Accord is at home at home depot picking out light fixtures and laminate floor samples.

How is this possible? the Accord is listed at 278hp so I have at least 70hp on him plus the high flow cats and CAI .
What gives??? Are my mods slowing me down without a tune ??

There is always someone in a fart canned civic that thinks they are in a corvette next to me ,they rev and take off leaving me in their dust. I know what I have and have nothing to prove ,I actually enjoy driving relaxed most of the time. Insurance is way too expensive and my livelihood is my commercial hazmat license.
